My choice would be the robot dino', 70-80 squid in shops, but can be obtained for £40 on ebay.....oh and aparently kids like em too lol
My God he's taking Xmas seriously - there's a first in all the years I've known him. Xmas shopping for Alfa is normally a run around shops on Xmas Eve. I'm stunned he has done research. Heard there was a decent poker game for the Xbox anyone got any details?
I have seen a machine that you can plug into your telly, that a few of you can play poker on - can't sodding remember where I saw it now, that looked like good fun. Gonna go surf and look for it. Watch this space!

Dik9, a good place that I have used for bikes before is http://www.sterlinghouse.co.uk/, they have fantastic prices on a lot of their bikes, and when we used them 2 years ago they gave us a free upgrade on a mountain bike, as the one we wanted had sold out. Fast delivery too!

Oh, and on the subject of PSP, you can't beat them for graphics, they are expensive but IMO they are worth every penny (wish I had one ) You can even put your digital pics on them also, How cool!!
I've got a Nintendo DS for my 9 year old with several games, my eldest (12yr old, Jenny) is getting her first PC. Baby of the family, Caitlin - soon to big a Big 5, is getting a sort of scooter/Dolls buggy (very cool!) also all the little bits that little girls want. They're so easy at that age

Apologies for hijacking this thread everyone.
But Alfa's cryptic message is in fact EXCELLENT news for him and his family.
It's an Xmas present that will be remembered for a long time.
I am very happy for them all, but over the moon for his nephew, a nicer lad you couldn't wish to meet.
